A NARROW ESCAPE.
A Tie Placed in Front of the
Overland EXpreSS.

The passengers on the overland eX-
press, which arrived last night, had a
narrow escape from death and de-
struction which was only prevented
by the presence of mind of the engin-
eer, Doc Baer. Some person, at pres
ent unknown, either for the purpose
of robbery or through wanton mali
ciousness, had placed a railroad tie
across the track at point about three
miles west of Spadra, and Doc Baer,
the engineer, who was keeping close
watch ahead, saw the obstruction and
turned on the air brakes. This prompt
action slowed down the train, which
was not proceeding at a very rapid
rate. BY the time the tie was reached
the train had slowed down 50 that it
was not going rapidly enough to cause
the slightest jar. The tie was showed
along the track for distance of about
thirty feet before the engine, which
was one of the heavier class, came to
standstill. The trainmen jumped
from the train in the full
expectation of seeing some one,
but the guilty parties did not appear.
1t took about twenty minutes to get
the tie out from under the engine,
after which the train proceeded with
out further mishap. The passengers
on board were quite nervous over
what might have heen the result had
the engineer not seen the obstruction
in time, and it was considered that the
object OF the miscreants was to wreck
the train for the sake of the booty
which could have been secured in
that case. 1t was a narrow escape,
for had not the tie been observed in
time it would certainly have thrown
the engine from the track and the cars
following. There was no way for the
tie to have fallen across the track ac-
cidentally, and the spot was we'll
chosen on account of its loneliness.
An effort will be made to find the
guilty party.

GENERAL BLACKS NEWS.
In conversation with a HERALD
reporter last night, at the Nadeau,
General j. G.. Black OF Washington,
ID. c., said that the party had had a
charming trip. Through the entire
State we were treated with the great
est of hospitality. We are delighted
with the climate, the country and
more than all, the people of Cali
fornia. | can not speak in too high
terms.
The Commission met at Dayton,
Ohio, November 9th, and from there
we went direct to San Francisco, stop
ping one day in Salt Lake and few
hours at Sacramento, and from there
went to San Francisco where we re-
manned q week. In the meantime,
however, we visited several adjacent
points. We have visited Santa Rosa,
Napa, Monterey, Oakland, Santa
Cruz, Santa Barbara and number OF
other places. We were pleased with
all the places and received many lib
eral offers.
At Santa Rosa we had two PROPOSE
tons. Quite number OF propositions
made to us have not been published
by the press. In all, l think there
have been forty or fifty propositions
made us. We were met at Newhall
by committee of your citizens, and
upon our arrival here were favored
with drive about the city. l con-
slider that you have wonderful city.
Its magical yet substantial growth is
simply marvellous. All of our party
have expressed themselves us very
favorably impressed with Los Angeles
indeed 1t is our purpose to leave
here tomorrow evening at 6 p. NJ. for
San Diego, after which we shall return
home. Our decision as to the location
of the Home will not be made public
until after we have viewed the last
tract proposed for our consideration.
Our decision will very likely be made
after we leave the Stlte."

SPECTATORS READ THIS.

The above description of Anaheim
will be found true in all respects. Go
and see before you buy elsewhere
True as it is, it is only half the truth.
This town lies in the center OF an inn
mense area OF the finest land on the
good green earth. This stretch of
country extends for from IA to 80
miles around. 1t takes in the rich
North Anaheim and Placentia country
on the north. Here the new town of
Fullerton is going up at marvellous
pace. 1t has Il hotel, a great many
fine residences, and these are being
added to daily. To the south lies the
richest grain, fruit and dairy district
in the State. All about vines, oranges,
nuts, and all the citrus, deciduous,
semitropic and other fruits grown to
perfection. There is railroad to An
aheim, now, with trains twice each
way daily. There is another railroad
the California Central, now being
built from this point to Los Angeles.
1t will be in operation by the end of
the year. The S. p. Company con-
templates tie construction OF a line
from their depot in Anaheim through
North Anaheim, Fullerton and Placen-
tia. A company is now organized to
build railroad from Anaheim to An
aheim Landing, where harbor is to
be constructed in the near future.
Anaheim is, therefore, to be the
center of very considerable system
of railroads. She will grow from this
on in population, business, wealth and
all the elements of prosperous place.
Remember the boom has just begun
here. Anaheim real estate has scarce
ly risen in price beyond the figures
ruling three or four years ago. While
all around lands are selling at $500,
$500 and $1,000 per acre, the pick OF
Anaheim is still to be had away below
the lowest figure above. With good
business. unrivaled soil, the best
climate in the country, the most abun-
dant supply of water, crystal clear,
Anaheim lands are held at less than
half the figures asked elsewhere for
property in all respects less desirable
than this. NoW is the tine to bay.
The boom is on and it will swell to a
full tide in a few weeks.

FAIR ANAHEIM.
Home Seekers, Read Care
fully This Column.

Anaheim is the Oldest colony in
Southern California. The settlers
who, in 1857, selected this spot were
men of experience in all the varied
affairs of life. They looked all over
the State and pitched upon Anaheim
as, in all respects, the most attractive
spot they encountered. The history
of the past thirty years, the wealth of
the old settlers, the business done in
the town and the products OF the sec
ton fully justify the choice made by
these PRESIDENT colonists.
Anaheim is situated about 26 miles
southeast of Los Angeles on branch
Of the S. p. Railway, which is soon to
be developed into a main line, termiA-
ating at San Diego. The town is four
teen miles from the Pacific ocean, at
Il small bay known as the Anaheim
Landing. There are about $500 peo-
pie in the town of to-day, and there
ire churches of all the leading de-
nominations, a fine public school
about the best in the county-stores
stocked with goods of all sorts, in
abundant supply and of the ve.y best
in the market. There is bank and a
good hotel-with q second now build
ing and third quite certain soon to
be begun. Then large and finely
equipped girls school will be erected
at a very early day. The ground has
been bought-an ample piece, three
and half acres in the very heart OF
the town-and the plans are being
drawn. The streets in Anaheim are
laid out with regularity and they are
broad and smooth, with sidewalks,
and many of them are aligned with
fine shade trees. The residences In
the town are model Of neatness and
comfort. The gardens bloom with
rare flowers at all seasons of the year,
and everything bears an aspect of
thrift and prosperity. such as one
rarely encounters in any town in any
section of the country.
For healthfulness fair Anaheiln has
no rival on the coast. The town site
lies on ridge of land, and the con-
tour slopes gently from Anaheim, fall
ing away to the east towards the
Santa Ana river, to the west towards
i wide wash and southerly towards
the ocean. The soil is quite pourous
and this contour OF the land and the
character OF the soil furnish system
OF natural drainage which is quite
perfect.
The climate OF Anaheim cannot be
surpassed in Southern California.
Northerly lie a range of high mount
aims and IA miles to the south is the
sea. The air currents come from the
southwest and are always refreshing
and bracing because of their pass age
over the unreasonable expenses of
the Pacific ocean. Here is the place
for healthful, happy homes fer all
corners in search of the very best of

The Anti-SaIoon Movement.

| The Ahti-SalO0n movement
| EDITOR HERALD-Usually leading
ne wspapers open their columns to
both sides OF any prominent local
question, especially when that ques-
ton has no press or organ OF its own.
The following article was handed to
the Tribune, but it has not yet been
printed. This anti-saloon movement
being endorsed by the churches, the
ladies, and many OF our best citizens,
it is hoped that brief statement may
be allowed in the columns OF the
HERALD. Yours,
w. r. GOODWIN.
| EDITOR Tri6une-As the Tribune is
given to fair dealing, may be allowed
to state a few things concerning ths
anti-saloon movement in this city. II
was my privilege to preside at the
first meeting called to consider this
matter, and | have attended nearl.
every meeting since.
Allow me to say that the movement
is non-partisan, for Democrats, Re-
publicans and third party men have
agreed to sink all partisan matters in
this war upon the saloons. This
movement is not in favor OF restrlc
ton or high license, but is against the
aloon as an institution or nuisance
1t is movement on the part of the
churches, Christian people and lovers
of the home against the enemy OF the
Bible and the home. If only restric-
ton was desir I'd, the old parties would
answer the purpose, for both parties
have declared in favor of restriction.
The avowed intention of this indepen-
dent ticket is to close and keep closed
every saloon in the city. OF course
this can be done, unless Los Angelo
is in the power of the hoodlum ele-
ment, for we can enforce any law that
the voters may cause to be enacted.
To deny this is to declare that we are
not capable of self-government.
The question with the men engaged
in this crusade against the saloon is
not one OF more financial income
though our finances would be in better
shape if we had no saloons-nor is it
whether few low dives would be
closed in order to build up larger ones,
but whether all of the places where
the young and the old are corrupted
and destroyed shall be shut up. We
do not restrict or license spoiled meat
or contagious diseases, or any other
thing that is hurtful to society. And
if we wanted to restrict the saloon,
high license will not do it, never has
done it and cannot do it. 1t may re-
duce the number of saloons, but will
not reduce the number of drinkers or
drunkards.
Having lived in high license State,
and having seen it fully tested in
towns and cities, am ready to prove
what l assert.
This anti-saloon movement, then, is
not political nor sectarian, but an eff
fort on the part of men of all political
and ecclesiastical shades of belief to
protect the home against the worst foe
known to God or mantle saloon.
We would greatly rejoice to have the
powerful influence of the Tribune in
this struggle for morality, pu G gov
eminent and the homes of Los An
geles. Yours, truly,
w. r. GOoDWN,

MARGARET MATHER.
How She Appeared as ssROsalind''
Her Last Performance Here.

standing room only" was the order
at the Grand last night. The attrac-
ton was Miss Mather and her COM
pany in As You Like 1t, the star OF
course taking the role of "Rosalind. "
Her portrayal Of this romantic and
fascinating character was most de-
lightful bit of histrionic art. In APP
pearance Miss Mather is quite as well
cast in "Rosaiind" as in outlet. "
Her youthful face and finely developed
physique with her shapely form fit
the part to perfection. Her reading
of the piquant lines was good, and her
acting was full of a coquettish grace,
and yet of most tender passion for
her "Orlando." In this last role Mr..
Paulding maintained the golden opin-
ions he had won when cast to other
characters In physical perfection
it is hard to satisfy a Los Angeles au-
dience in an "Orlando;" for
have they not seen Maur-
ice Barrymore in this cast
Mr.. Levick, as the melancholy
Jacques" divided the honors with
the star. In his reading Of the null
titude OF the finest lines with which
the role is so enriched, he won re-
peated rounds of plaudits.
Indeed. the entire cast was ex-
cellent-Mrs. Smith, perhaps, little
tame in audrey" All the songs in
troduced in this play were well rem
dered, feature which won three en-
cores to each song.
At the matinee this afternoon
Bulwer's Lady of Lyons will be pro-
duced, and the season will close to-
night with Tobin's sweet Honeymoon.

INVESTORS READ THIS.

A week or two ago there came to
Anaheim ten families, seeking houses
to rent, while they could buy lot and
build for themselves. There was not
one cottage even to divide with the
ten families. There is not a store to
be had to open a new business. There
is a demand for houses and stores.
Anaheim has two amusement halls,
but she needs fine opera house. The
citizens are contemplating the erection
of one. Any person who will build a
house in Anaheim will rent it at a
good per centage on its cost the day it is
built. He who will put up store will
find a tenant as quickly. His money
will be invested we'll Tor all time to
come. There is room for great ex-
pansion, the growth has begun and it
will continue.
